Chapter 229 The Secret Technique of Gathering Yang
Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Zhong arrived over a valley.
This valley is located in the northwest corner of Bihai Island, less than a hundred miles away from Bihai Sect.
Such a close distance is already a threat.
Looking down at the valley from a high place, the valley has become a sea of worms. They are greenish-yellow in color with dark brown spots all over their bodies. They are about the size of a green cow and look like big, plump meat worms.
He had never seen this form of spiritual insect in the classics.
A wall more than thirty feet high has been built around the valley. At this moment, the disciples are hiding on the wall, constantly attacking the spiritual insects coming towards them.
But judging from the current situation, the situation is obviously not good for the monks.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong raised his hand and released the fat red.
With the strength in the middle stage of pill formation, it can be said that it is effortless to deal with these weak individual spirit insects, which are equivalent to the first and second levels of Qi refining.
In the blink of an eye, swarms of spiritual insects fell down.
Lu Zhong's action immediately attracted a burst of cheers.
"Ancestor is mighty!"
"Ancestor is mighty!"
"..."
At the same time, several monks raised their magic weapons into the air.
Several of them were monks in the late stage of Qi refining. At this moment, facing the ancestor Lu Zhong, they all felt uneasy and said: "This disciple is not doing things well, please ask the ancestor to punish me!"
They were responsible for besieging and killing the insect swarm. Not only did they fail to complete the set task, but they also lost several disciples and injured several times as many. Although the responsibility for this matter did not lie entirely with a few people, in order to maintain their status in the sect and their hearts,
I was deeply afraid of Master Jin Dan, so I had no choice but to take the initiative to apologize.
Lu Zhong glanced at them and said calmly: "Let's make up for it."
It's easy to be the leader of a sect, and his methods are nothing more than sweet dates and sticks.
Dirty matters are left to the head of the general affairs. As an ancestor, he only needs to be responsible for winning people's hearts. Although sometimes it is necessary to establish authority, but it is obviously not necessary at the moment.
the other side.
When several people heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Lu Zhong's attention moved to the valley, where there were still spiritual insects pouring out from afar, and the number could really be called a "spring".
"No wonder the killing continues..."
Seeing this scene, his figure suddenly fell.
The current situation has exceeded Bihai Sect's ability to handle it.
As a newly founded sect, Bihai Sect, after the departure of former Haiyuan Palace Master He Bin, currently does not even have a foundation-building true cultivator in the sect. If it were not for him, the ancestor of Jindan, he would have been destroyed long ago.
extinguished.
In this case, Lu Zhong could only solve the problem personally.
In mid-air, he blessed himself with the Breath Condensation Technique and the Stealth Technique. Suddenly, in the eyes of the insects, his presence dropped to almost nothing, and then he fell directly to the ground.
As if entering a deserted place, he strode toward the crack in front of him where insects gushed out.
Entering inside, what Lu Zhong didn't expect was that there were even more spiritual insects in the cracks.
It's just a few feet away from filling up the cave, which is several feet wide.
As a last resort, he had to dig a tunnel by himself.
While using his spiritual sense to explore the surroundings, he dug along the direction in which the swarm of insects came. The number of strange spiritual insects he saw along the way was no less than 10,000.
Thinking that there were more such spiritual insects below, Lu Zhong increased his vigilance.
Once there are too many ants, they can kill an elephant.
Although his cultivation is in the middle stage of pill formation, his magic power is not infinite, and the body-protecting Qi will also be worn away and destroyed, and there is a possibility of being worn to death by the swarm of insects.
Digging along, a huge insect nest soon appeared in front of him.
The structure of the entire insect nest is very complex. It is more than a thousand feet in size as far as Lu Zhong can see. It is composed of small spaces, each of which seems to have its own purpose. Some of them are suspected to be farmland, and there are spiritual insects taking care of the bacterial lawn.
, and carry monster beast corpses from elsewhere to use as fertilizer, and then transport the mature fungus lawn out.
By tracking these bacterial lawns, you can find that after being swallowed by spiritual insects, they will be regurgitated into honey-like spiritual liquid and fed to immature larvae.
"A well-organized spirit insect nation?"
Lu Zhong was startled by his own thoughts, but judging from the current situation, the internal structure of this strange insect swarm seemed to be like this, beyond his understanding of the spiritual insects in the classics.
After thinking about it, it is actually normal for such a structure to appear.
After all, judging from the current situation, this insect swarm is obviously not good at fighting, and its individual strength is generally weak. It is probably for this reason that it has formed the habit of farming on its own.
After observing carefully for a while, he understood the reason why the insect swarm appeared on the ground.
"Lack of food!"
Most of the space in the insect nest is farmland used to grow fungus lawns, which can be affected by a brown mold. These farmlands are in a state of abandonment, resulting in a significant reduction in food for the insect colonies.
It is for this reason that a large number of spiritual insects rushed to the ground.
This is where the human-insect conflict arises.
Lu Zhong took a ball of spiritual honey and found that it contained rich spiritual energy. It was only a ball as big as a fist, but it was almost the same as the spiritual energy contained in a low-grade spiritual stone.
Recalling the scene of the insect swarm fertilizing, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Interesting, it can actually transform the demon spirit energy in the demon beast's body with the help of bacterial moss, and finally produce this kind of spiritual honey that even monks can take. This is obviously a treasure insect!"
Lu Zhongben was still thinking about how to deal with this insect swarm.
Now it seems that there is a clear need to stay.
If it can be controlled, that would be even better. That means that Bihai Sect will have one more spiritual honey production resource point in the future, which is no less valuable than a spiritual stone mine.
Continue to explore and soon find a giant meat insect.
Its size is exaggeratedly large, almost the same as a hundred-foot flying boat.
At this moment, under the feeding of meat worms, green and yellow worm eggs are constantly leaking out from its tail like raindrops, and then are carried away by the spirit worms who have been waiting for a long time, and taken to the incubation room to hatch.
In just one breath, more than a hundred eggs were produced.
With such an exaggerated egg-laying speed, it's no wonder that no matter how hard the people above kill them, they can't kill all these spiritual insects.
No matter how much you kill them, they probably won't grow as fast as the big flesh worms.
Lu Zhong then pulled out a spiritual contract. He had a lot of this thing on him, which he had found among the previous loot. He had prepared some in his storage bag just to be prepared for a rainy day.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! You can use it now.
That big meat insect, you can tell at a glance that it is the Queen of Insects.
He can sense that the entire insect swarm is under the control of the insect queen, so as long as he recovers the insect queen, he can control this insect swarm that can produce spiritual honey.
The process of signing the spiritual contract was very simple. The insect queen's strength was only in the early stage of Qi refining, and the soul was pitifully weak in front of the real person Jin Dan. She quickly gave in under coercion and inducement and handed over a ray of soul aura.
But Lu Zhong always felt that the reason why it agreed so quickly was related to the conditions he stated.
The conditions for providing food and accommodation were just stated.
The insect queen, who was still resisting tenaciously, fell instantly.
Immediately, Lu Zhong asked the insect queen to order the insect swarm to retreat to the insect nest. The latter followed the order after receiving the order, and executed it without any compromise.
A human-insect war ended here.
…
Lu Zhong returned to the ground.
First, he appeases the disciples in the sect, and gives those who should be compensated, and the rewards and punishments that should be given are also not given.
He gave the swarm the name "Big Honey Bug".
After solving the mold problem in the insect nest, Lu Zhong began to test his thoughts, wanting to know how quickly the insect swarm transformed demon spiritual energy and what level of spiritual honey the giant honey worm could produce at the highest level.
In terms of fertilizer, he provided the demonic beast inner elixir.
The results will come out half a year later.
The speed at which the giant honey worm converts demon spiritual energy is similar to that of a monk planting spiritual rice for one season, which is about one season. Therefore, if you want to increase the output of spiritual honey, the simplest and crudest way is to directly expand the bacterial moss spiritual field.
The more spiritual fields there are, the more spiritual honey will be produced.
In terms of the level of spiritual honey produced, according to Lu Zhong's many experimental results, it seems that it is limited by the bacterial moss and has nothing to do with the level of the demon pill used as fertilizer, but is more affected by the strength of the giant honey bug.
If you want to get high-level spiritual honey, you must first increase the level of the insect swarm.
And this is obviously a long process.
Lu Zhong originally thought about whether he could get the big honey worm to produce spiritual honey that was comparable to high-end elixirs, but now it seemed that this was a bit of a dream, so he had to give up his plan.
However, this is a great benefit for the sect.
At present, there are disciples in the sect who are in the Qi refining stage. Taking this kind of spiritual honey can have the same effect as the first-level elixir, and they are not afraid of the accumulation of erysipelas.
"It seems that in the future, we can recruit more qi refining disciples, even those with useless spiritual roots and inferior spiritual root qualifications, and arrange for them to take care of the big honey bugs, which will be enough to earn back the cost."
"Also, the maintenance cost of the sect can also be reduced a lot. In the future, whenever the sect benefits, we will use this spiritual honey instead."
With this in mind, Lu Zhong issued a Taoist edict to the head of the general affairs department, ordering him to immediately start recruiting more people.
I stayed there for another half a year.
During this period, Lu Zhong gave lectures once a month.
The purpose is very simple, it is to let some of the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage as soon as possible so that they can become the mainstay of the sect and allow the Bihai Sect to start operating normally.
This is also the reason why Lu Zhong has not yet divided the inner and outer disciples.
It is really necessary.
…
A few more months passed.
The method of making the Little True Yang Talisman was finally completely obtained by Lu Zhong.
He has been working hard for this for nearly ten years.
"Finally got it!"
Compared with the second-level flying talisman, the third-level small true sun talisman looks more complicated.
Although Lu Zhong has not started to learn it yet, there is no doubt that the time and effort required to master this talisman is definitely not a small amount.
After sorting out the information, he began to understand the Little True Yang Talisman.
According to the Talisman Making Book, the Small True Yang Talisman is similar to the exorcism talisman. The amount of Yang Qi is an important factor in determining the power of this Talisman, and this requires a secret technique of gathering Yang to collect and gather the energy of the sun.
When making a talisman, this kind of Zhiyang essence can be transferred into the talisman, so that the small True Yang talisman can have amazing power.
Be someone else.
It is a troublesome thing to collect the essence of the sun.
But for Lu Zhong, he can completely hand it over to the Bihai Sect disciples and have them turn it in regularly every year, which will surely satisfy the need for making talismans.
The only problem is keeping it confidential.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome for Changchun Valley to know about it.
As for the talisman itself, the three parts of the talisman, the head, talisman, gallbladder and foot, are all extremely complicated, and the writing techniques involved are unpredictable and changeable. Lu Zhong's scalp went numb for a while.
Fortunately, if you calm down and study it, you can still get some clues, but it's not impossible to start.
From then on, Lu Zhong had one more arrangement every day.
Practice the Little True Yang Talisman.
…
Years pass by, and in a blink of an eye it’s a new year.
The demon hunting order is still in effect.
This human-monster war has not stopped for a while, but has become more and more intense. Not only the Changchun Domain, but also the Yanzhen Domain next door has begun to be affected by the beast tide, and has to take measures.
Measures similar to Changchun Valley.
Affected by this, the prices of some spiritual items on the market began to rise steadily.
Chengde Chamber of Commerce has its gains and losses, but in the end, it still makes more money, so it accumulates good deeds in Changchun Valley faster.
One morning.
Lu Zhong came to the Changchun Valley Ten Thousand Treasures Hall and prepared to exchange all the good deeds accumulated in the recent period into elixirs.
The Dan Jie elder who was responsible for this matter was named Luo Jianshen, and he was one of the six Dan Jie in the late stage of Changchun Valley. However, he looked very old, and his face was covered with dark and light spots. It was obvious that he had no hope of having a baby.
That's why Luo Jianshen came to Wanbao Hall to take care of himself.
Hearing Lu Zhong's request, he raised his head in surprise and subconsciously advised: "Fellow Taoist Lu, do you really not consider exchanging the secrets of the exercises? There are many good exercises in this treasure house. As a casual cultivator, you can redeem a good copy."
The exercises are much better than elixirs for improving one’s cultivation!”
Hearing this, Lu Zhong shook his head and said, "Thank you so much for your kindness."
Seeing that Lu Zhong insisted on his opinion, Luo Jianshen just said it casually, so he didn't try to persuade him again.
After checking the authenticity of the tokens of good deeds, he picked up a jade album on the table and began to draw pictures on it, all of which were elixirs suitable for the middle stage of elixir formation.
After a while, the teleportation array on the table lit up.
A storage bag appears.
"Let's do it, but we have to count it carefully. Once we leave this door, if there is anything missing or omitted, then the responsibility will be entirely on the fellow Taoist." Luo Jianshen handed over a list, and after finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and rested.
Lu Zhong quickly completed the inventory. There were a total of seventeen bottles of different sizes, and the types and quantities were consistent with the list.
In terms of quality, there is no problem.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Lu Zhong handed over and left.
After leaving Changchun Valley, he came to Changchun Street without stopping.
I participated in three auctions in a row, all for the purpose of bidding for third-level elixirs suitable for the middle stage of elixir formation. Competitors came from all over the southern barbarians. In order to continue to improve their cultivation, the bidding process was extremely fierce.
Even the wealthy Lu Zhong was shocked by the crazy price increase process.
Considering the gains and losses, he finally only took a bottle of tempering elixir.
This bottle of tempering elixir is of poor quality, so the side effects of taking it are not small, especially the large amount of impurities contained in it, which requires a lot of effort just to remove it.
Lu Zhong only dared to take pictures because he had forged spiritual fire and could avoid the side effects of the tempering pill.
After getting the elixir, he rushed back to Ganquan Island as soon as possible.
After being gentle with Yu Feng'er for a while, we settled some matters and then came to the Ganquan Cave Quiet Room.
Sit cross-legged and meditate.
After his breath calmed down, he took out a tempering pill and drank it. Soon there was warmth in his belly, and he began to use his body to refine the spiritual energy in the pill.
